INCREASES YOUR EFFICIENCY.
lay the Foundation of Good Health Now by Building Up Your Blood
and Strengthening Your Nerves.
The or od old fashion of taking a tonic in the springtime, like
sous.( of t customs of our grandparents. is based upon sound
common tie se and gond :medical practice. No matter how mild the
winter it is a trying time, even in the most favored climates, for
those who a not in rugged physical health. Many men, women
and childen o through the winter on reserve tttrength they have
stored up do ing the sunny, summer months, and grow increasingly
pale tis the sping'days approach. A tonic for the blood and nerves
at 'this -time till do much for such people, by putting color in the
cheeks and banishing that tired feeling that worries thousands at
this season of the year.
Von can not be energetic if your blood is thin and weak. nr if
your nerves are frayed nr shattered. Yon cannot compete with
others if ,sou -do not get refreshing sleep at night, or if you are losing
weight. You need a tonic at this time to add to your efficiency now,
eta well as to save yeti from suffering later on. And in all the realm
of medicine there is no safer or Netter tonic than 1)r. Williams' Pink
Pills for Pale People. These pills maks new rich, red blond, which
circulates" through every portion of the body strengthening jaded
peeves and run-down organs, and bringing a feeling of nevi strength
' and energy to weak, easily tired, despondent men, women and
children.

THE TOWN COUNCIL..
TOWN CLERK KNOX IS ALSO APPOINTED
TOWN TREASURER.
Grant of $5.00 Asked for Band Council Petitioned to Buy Prop-
erty Adjoining Harbor Park Daylight-saving Plan Adopted
Councillor Humber Gives Notice of Motion to Rescind
Action on West Shore Railway Suit. '
The town council had a lung but inter-
esting session at its regular meeting on
Friday evening.
After the reports of corporation of-
ficers had been received, a deputation
from the Goderich Musical Society was
heard. Sheriff Reynolds explained what
had been done towards the reorgaritss-
Lion of the 33rd Regiment band, which
had progressed to the extent that a band
was assured and a bandmaster had been
engaged at a salary of 1400. He thought
it was not necessary to speak of the
necessity of a band in Goderich; all
realized it. 1t was impossible to secure a
bandmaster on the same terms as in
'former years, and in consideration of this
dad other necessary expenses he asked
the council for a grant of 1500. The
annual grant before the war was $300;,
In return for the grant the band would.
as in former years, give a certain number
of concerts on the Square during the
summer.
Mr. M. G. Cameron, K. C., endorsed
Sheriff Reynolds' remarks and also
stated/hat in addition to the grant from
the council a canvass of the citizens
would be necessary in order to provide
needed funds.
Messrs. J. S. Platt and Geo. Stewart,
members of the band executive, also
spoke briefly. Mr. Stewart. as the Sher-
iff remarked. has gone to a great deal of
trouble in getting men for the band and
in securing positions for them in town.
Reeve Davis said he was prepared to
move for the, grant as required. and
Councillor Humber also expressed his
hearty support; but in order to conform
with the rules of the council the matter
was referred to the finance committee.
Harbor Park Project.
A letter from the historical committee
of the Board of Trade asked the council's
consideration of a propoeal for the acquis-
ition by the town of the property adjoin-
ing Harbor Park. including the building
known as the Park House, and adding it,
to the town's park system. The house
could be used to provide toilet facilities
for excursionists visiting the lakefront.
but its main use, according to the plan
proposed. would be as an historical muse-
um, the Board of Trade committee being
ready to undertake this part of t pro-
ject. This would be an additional attrac-
tion to visitors to our town. "Those who
have seen the crowds flocking to visit the
Log Cabin in Palmer Park, Detroit,
the Chateau de Ramesay at Montreal,
and similar places all over the country,
can readily appreciate what an attrac-
tion of this kind would mean in our
community," said the letter.
Accompanying the letter was a petition
in favor of the project signed by over
200 persons.
Judge B. L. Doyle, now residing at
Grand View, State of 7lashington, asks
116,500 for the property mentioned. and
Mr. T. G. Connon, who represented the
historical committee before the council,
stated (rankly that he would not favor
the paying of any such price for it. An
effort is being made to secure an abate
ment of the price.
SheriffReynolds supported the peti-
tion, stating that all the property facing
the -waterfront should be in the hands of
the town. The project would provide
needed accommodation for visitors; for a
town that posed as a summer resort
Goderich was very much lacking in this
respect.
The letter and petition were referred to
the parks committee.
A note from Lady Laurier acknowl-
edged the message of sympathy sent to
her by the council.
A letter from Rev. A. L. G. Clarke
informed the council that on the day to
be proclaimed for the celebration of peace
a public service of thanksgiving would be
held in St. George's church at 7.30 p. m.
An invitation was extended to the Mayor
and council and the town officials to be
present at this service. A resolution was
passed accepting the rector's invitation.
A - complaint from Geo. Cockfield.
Wilson street, of the flooding of his cellar,
with a request that a sewer be con-
structed to remedy the trouble in that
part of the town, was referred to the
public works committee.
To Adopt Daylight-saving Time.
A letter from the G. T. R. authorities,
asking that the council adopt the ad-
vanced time in conformity with the rail-
way time. was submitted.
MayorWigle said he had had a canvass
made of the factories.and had found a
general feeling in favor of the change.
The towns of Clinton, Seaforth andWing-
ham, however, were not adopting the new
time.
Councillor Humber thought Goderich,
as the county town, should lead, not fol-
low. The larger towns were all adopting
the new time—Stratford, Kitchener,
Brantford, Guelph and others. He
moved that the town adopt "daylight-
saving" time at 2 a. m. the next Sunday.
This was seconded by Councillor Walker.
Councillor Parsons. who had just re-
turned from a visit to Toronto. said he
had been asked on his travels what
Goderich was doing in the matter. and
his questioners when told that Goderich
was still on old time thought the town
was behind the procession.
Councillors Mitchell and Wallis t hought
it might be well to wait a while. but when •
the motion was put it was understood to
be carried unanimously.
F. H. Wood applied for the renewal of
h s billiards and bowling license. Re-
ferred to special committee.
in reply to the request of the council
for reductions in water and Right charges,
the secretary of the water and light com-
mission wrote stating that the amounts
charged for schools and the Agricultural
Society would be deducted from the town
account and the school boards would be
charged with their respective service!.
The charge for flushing sewers had been
reduced from 1170 to 1100. No reduc-
tion was made in charges for fountains,
and the matter of a reduction in the
street lighting charges had been referred
to the iviricial Commission.
O. W. S. Railway Std(.
Councillor Humber gave notice that at
tate next regular meeting he would move'
to rescind the action of the council with
regard to the lawsuit against the Toronto
General Trusts Corporation.
('oaamittee Reports. °
The special committee rec.mmenied a
grant of 150 to the Women's lostitute,
payable quarterly in advance. to assist in
establishing a women's rest ro,m; that
the Ahmeek Chapter, 1. O. D. E . renew
its application regarding tag days
within thirty days poor to the
dates of the proposed tag days; that
the request of the city council of Hamil-
ton for the petitioning of the Govern-
ment to provide for the payment of a
portion of auto license fees and magis-
trates' tines to the municipalities be not
complied with. that in view of the taking
of a referendum at an early date in the
matter of probition it would be imprudent
fOt the council to sign the petition asking
the(. Government to make a at time pro
hibitipn perrrWtent,
Councillor Humber thought it would be
a gocd thing to get the automobile fees;
but Councillor Parsons explained that
the committee's idea was that the town
was looking (flee the expenditure of Pro-
vincial money aft the highway to Code -
rich and it would not look well to ask for
the money whitda was going into this
expenditure.
The finance corn 'ttee reported on a
number of accounts recommended
that the sumo( $25 be paid to the Sol-
diers' Aid Commission ottt of the county
Red Cross fund.
The public works committee recom-
mended its.onsideration o1 a previous
recommendation regarding selvage di*
posa' The Mayor explained that the
Provincial Board of Health would pro-
vide an expert engineer to advise sit, this
matter.
These reports were all adoped.
Cbuncillor Parsons moved that ttrq
salary of the chief of police. exclusive coif
fees, be 1750, with a bonus of 150 for
twelve months' service. Referred to
special committee.
Reference to Dr. Strand s Death.
The M1:tyex made 9 sympathetic
reference 1.. the death of Dr. Strang, and
his suugestion that a letter of condolence
be sent to Mrs. Strang and that the
council attend the funeral in a body was
adopted.
His Worship spoke of the condition of
the approach to the C. P. R. station and
the matter was referred to the public
works committee. Councillor Wallis
thought it might be better to have the
walk on the north side of the ravine,
where the sun would get at it better and
it would be dry practically all the time.
Reference was made also to the danger
from loose stones on the harbor hill road,
and Councillor Mitchell suggested a
reduction of the grade of the road.
Mr, Knox Appointed Treasurer.
The matter of a successor to Mr. A.
Straiton as town treasurer was brought
up and Reeve Davis moved, seconded by
Councillor Mitchell, that Mr. L. L. Knox
be appointed at the same salary as Mr.
Stratton. 1300. This was carried unani-
mously. Mr. Knox will, of course,
continue in his position of town Berk.
in reply to a question from Councillor
Parsons, the Mayor stated that the
sedimentation basin was flushed twice a
year. On account of the bad condition
of the water at present it was decided to
request the commission to have the water
pipes flushed and the sedimentation
basin leaned.
The matter of a new accounting system
for the treasurer's office was referred, after
some discussion, to the finance committee.
The police bylaw was then- taken up
and gone over thoroughly, The chief's
hours on duty are to be from 7 a. m. to ti
p. m , with an hour off for dinner, and the
sergeant's from 8 p. m. to 6 a. m.
After passing the first and second
readings of the by-law the council ad-
journed.

gram to all the Workmen's Councils:
"The workers of Bavaria have
overcome (heir party divisions and
united in a mighty bloc against all
domination and exploitation. They
have taken over in Workers', Sol-
diers' and Peasants' Councils entire
public authority.
"The iantag has been diasolved
and peoples' commissions have been
appointed. Complete order prevails
In public affairs and business and
the administration is continuing.
"Works will be controlled by
works councils, which will control
workers and direct affairs Jointly
with the managers. Everything be-
long to the community. Indepen-

the Workers', Peasants' and Sol -
diem' Councils everywhere to attend
to the protection of the Soviet Re-
public and Its peaceful development.
They w111 take over local authority
and control the administration and
are responsible to the working people
